However one defines “family” it is crucial that children are supported by those who are closest to them. Family members have the most profound opportunity to influence a child’s own sense of expectation. How do we help children develop high expectations that fit them as an individual? Without role models and other families to learn from it can be hard. The opportunity to learn from each other this weekend is wonderful. It is especially cool that Mr. Keith Bundy will be on hand to share his thoughts on ‘The Importance of Expectations.”  On behalf of NDVS/SB and the Parent Planning Team, we expect that you will all walk away after the weekend with more ideas and a better sense of how to help your child develop the best possible expectations for him or her.

Our educational program is filled with instruction and experiences focusing on independence and the Expanded Core Curriculum. A focus this week will be on Recreation and Leisure by partaking in our Goalball tournament with SD School for the Blind and Visually Impaired. Space is limited!

Adults with visual impairments experience varying degrees of need for professional services depending upon age, lifestyle, community characteristics and their own unique visual functioning.

If you have a child who is deafblind, blind, or visually impaired, with or without additional disabilities, this conference is for you!

Children with visual impairments are being included in general physical education now more than ever. Unfortunately, even the most well-meaning teachers do not always have the background or knowledge to include these children safely or successfully. Please join us for this one-day workshop and learn how to include children with visual impairments, deafblindness and additional disabilities. Our nationally recognized presenter will share instructional techniques, equipment options, blind sports, validated assessments, and a variety of relevant resources that will help your entire program.
